Different irrationals yield to different techniques. ϕ = ( 1 + 5 ) / 2 just involves calculating 5 , which can be done easily by Newton's method from introductory calculus. The infinite series
e = 1 + 1 + 1 / 2 + 1 / 6 + 1 / 24 +
where the denominators are the factorials, can be used to calculate e.
